On a recent April evening, I made my way across the campus of Loyola University in Baltimore to address a group of Turning Point USA students on the topic “Reclaiming the Providence for America.” Along both sides of the pathways that crisscross the center of the campus were small flags representing the many genders that exist in the minds of many academics and their students in the nutty and destructive world of today’s radicalized academia.
Ignatius Loyola is one of three revered founders of the Jesuit movement, which was at the center of the Catholic counter-reformation in the 16th century, and his name is often found on educational institutions established by the Catholic Church. The Maryland university, the fourth such Catholic university in America, was founded by Jesuits in 1852. As I walked between the rows of weird flags I had to wonder: Why was a Catholic university promoting the agenda of a movement bent on the destruction of faith and traditional families?
